Ludlow is overshadowed by its own majestic castle, as it was once, like York, a seat of Government in Tudor and Stuart England. Now hosting the famous food festivals and events throughout the year, there is always a lively atmosphere in the town. It has a reputation for fine foods, award-winning restaurants, speciality and antique shops and even a racecourse.
There are public paths from the property which guests can use to walk into the town or to visit one of the many pubs or restaurants. An excellent base to explore the unrivalled countryside for picnicking and walking, or nearby towns such as Bridgnorth and Bewdley (Severn Valley Railway), Ironbridge, Much Wenlock, Church Stretton, Tenbury Wells and Leominster.
The cathedral city of Hereford with its chained library and Mappa Mundi are all within a short drive, as are historic houses such as Witley Court, Berrington Hall, Croft Castle, Stokesay Castle and Powis Castle on the Welsh borders. Acton Scott, an historic working farm and the Secret Hills Discovery Centre are all just a few of the nearby attractions, so you will never be short of something to see. Pub within 1 mile.

An amazing cottage in a fabulous location. The property had everything we hoped for and more, including fans in the very hot weather! Beds were very comfortable, the whole house was clean, and decoration was maintained to a high standard. The location was perfect for a walk into Ludlow or into the forest and good road links to attractions further afield. The owners were also very helpful when asked about fishing in the local area. We loved sitting out in the garden on an evening and watching the wildlife come together. Overall, an amazing week away as an extended family.
